  1. Man I glad I don't have any anchor poles to cause me to drive onto dry ground. I can hit stuff just fine without them.
  2. Were I able I would be out fishing for crappie. Outflows are being stepped down, will be at 50 CFS by end of day tomorrow which should be a slow rise for lake, things may get good.
  3. Mmmm, I love me some fried young squirrell, or older ones cooked till tender and the meat tossed into pot of noodles. I'll be visiting the squirrell woods this fall. Seems like hardly anyone hunts them anymore, but the plus side is its usually not too hard to find some, just pretend you are deer hunting.
  4. That would be great if they do.
  5. Tarheel I am interested, I also have a Walther P22, small light .22 Auloader that might be exactly what your wife wants. Shoots well, I just don't like that small of a pistol.
  6. No kidding Slowbait. Some years back I worked an accident on Pomme where a guy sitting in the front chair of a bass boat pulling a tube in a cove full of trees had hit a tree, tossed him out and broke his leg. While the then Water Patrolman and I were getting information a large ski boat pulling a tuber pulled into the cove, made a big loop and back out. We were waiting for the crash but it never happened.
  7. Leave a few for me, I have until October before I can play too. Glad to hear they are still around and hungry.
  8. There are always parameters within which choices can be made. At this time of year, with the likihood of flooding rains very remote the extra water in the resevoirs are viewed as Megawatts and $$. Beaver makes some megawatts, then Table Rock, then Empire, then Bull Shoals, why waste the water/megawatts/$$ by simply dumping it if its not necessary, the lakes are doing exactly what they are designed to do.
  9. Stockton does have a few private docks, but could you imagine trying to maintain a dock on Truman lake. The COE owns the land around all of its lakes, the difference is how much was bought. Pomme and Table were what are referred to as Eisenhower Lakes, at the time of their construction the policy was to buy the absolute minimun amount of land possible to ensure operation of the project. Later lakes bought considerably larger amounts of land. As mentioned LOZ is privately owned and has completely different rules.
  10. A little stream and campfire therapy, awesome. Purdy flowers and brookie.
  11. Looks like supper to me.
  12. Good, thought maybe something happened to him.
  13. Anybody seen or heard from Chief lately?
  14. If the problem is primarily caused by 5he heavy inflows how exactly would holding the waterlevel lower change it? Still have the same inflows, still have the same nutrient loading, guess what problem doesn't change. There are definitely affects from septic systems but the big algal blooms come from the nutrient rich inflows.
  15. The "Yard Carp" are becoming more and more of a problem on all the lakes.
  16. Sometimes we really need a dislike button.
  17. WOW, I have never heard of that severe of a reaction.
  18. Just because the water may be off the site doesn't mean it will be open/available. Depends on if any damage has been done to it from wave/wakes, debris, and roadway to the site.
  19. OK I am confused, are you selling teh 6 7/8 inch or a 5 1/2 inch.
  20. Talbot is usually good, even if sunflowers didn't make mowed wheat will be good. We usually go 3 very opening day, you won't be lonely will have plenty of folks around you. Another place call Sloan up by Lockwood is pretty good if the food is there. Opening day on Tuesday will reduce crowd some, torrential rains will reduce it a lot.
  21. Glad to see them going again.
  22. I did take a quick look at the gauge, it doesn't look like a storm event, a fairly steady slow increase, strange. Further upstream it is falling.
  23. I haven't looked at the gauges for the Elk, but it is not uncommon especially after some big rains/floods that the gauge has issues and must be re-calibrated or repaired by USGS folks.
  24. If you abuse your Ned too much you will go blind.
